Araqchi Mocks Trump’s Iran Assassination Claim
Reporter: “Trump says Iran tried to assassinate him in Turkey.”
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi: “No, there is absolutely no reason for that.”
Reporter: “Why?”
Araqchi: “Trump is already destroying the United States. We don’t want to eliminate him.”
The sharp response has gone viral online, with supporters describing Araqchi’s remark as a display of strategic wit and political sarcasm.
The comments were attributed to Iranian academic Hassan Ahmadian, who shared the exchange on social media amid continued tensions between Washington and Tehran.
